Z Factor · 04-05-2009

I've always loved Corvettes and remember when the rumors started about a super vette that was being drawn up. The anticipation built my interest to a fever pitch, and when I saw my first ZR-1 in person on a dealers showroom, I was slipping on my own drool. Trouble was that there was no way I could afford the $60K back in 1990. So I made due with a few other sports cars until I was able to afford one. To me, the Corvette was not a muscle car, but the ZR-1 made a perfect blend of a prestigious sports car that packed plenty of muscle.
